OT: Anyone doing vegtable gardens… what’s in your garden.

[briansd1]

We kids have been helping my dad in his garden.
He now has mostly fruit trees: pomegranate, kumquat, lime, mulberry, fig, peach.

I love the mulberry because you can’t find the fruit at the stores because it does not package and ship well. Excellent by itself, in a salad or ice cream.

He has onions, potatoes, tomatoes.

The potager is still a work in progress. It takes more thought in design and layout if you want an attractive backyard.

A kitchen garden is great fun for kids and sharing with the neighbors.

I’ve seen tomato plants persist into the next year but good fruit production wasn’t there after the summer passed. Most people are done or soon to be done with them by now. I did see a tomato plant at the nursery recently that had claims to be some kind of a cold season producer.

You will probably have to wrap them up at night to get them through the winter and I doubt they will make it through a freeze.

I’m left w/one tomato plant that somehow is holding up.

However, my Himrod grape did not produce this summer. I had 5 bunches forming and it looked promising. But this summer was the worst summer ever along the coast and overcast just about every day. It was very disappointing and frustrating. So it started going dormant. The grapples shriveled up. Then as soon as we had some warm weather, it started coming back again. No fruits.

My blueberries are still producing.
